The Healthy SNAP Act of 2025 amends the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 to revise the definition of "food" under SNAP. It excludes items like alcohol, tobacco, soft drinks, candy, ice cream, and prepared desserts from SNAP eligibility. The Act directs the Secretary to designate eligible foods based on nutritional value, public health, and cultural eating patterns, with regular reviews to update the list. It also allows for culturally relevant food substitutions with state approval, ensuring nutritional equivalence.

This bill urges the NCAA to reverse its current transgender athlete policy, arguing it discriminates against female athletes. It advocates for policies that ensure biological females compete against biological females in collegiate sports. The bill also calls on all sports governing bodies in the U.S. to protect women's sports.

The "Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025" amends Title IX to prohibit schools receiving federal funds from allowing males to participate in female athletic programs. Sex is defined as based on reproductive biology and genetics at birth. The bill allows males to train with female teams if it doesn't deprive females of opportunities. It also requires a study on the benefits lost to women when males participate in female sports.

The "Protecting Life and Taxpayers Act of 2025" prohibits federal funding for organizations that perform abortions or fund other organizations that do so, with exceptions for rape, incest, or to save the woman's life.

The "REMAIN in Mexico Act of 2025" mandates the Secretary of Homeland Security to reinstate and enforce the Migrant Protection Protocols, as previously outlined in the 2019 Policy Guidance. This requires migrants and asylum seekers to remain in Mexico while awaiting U.S. immigration proceedings.

This bill seeks to expunge the December 18, 2019, impeachment of President Donald J. Trump. It argues the impeachment was based on unsubstantiated claims and lacked the constitutional basis of high crimes and misdemeanors. The bill aims to remove the impeachment record as if it never occurred.

The Border Safety and Security Act of 2025 allows the Secretary of Homeland Security to suspend the entry of certain aliens at U.S. borders if it's needed to maintain control, and requires the Secretary to prohibit entry if aliens cannot be detained or placed in an appropriate program. State Attorneys General can sue the Secretary of Homeland Security in federal court if they believe this section is being violated. The bill defines "covered alien" as someone seeking entry who is inadmissible under existing immigration law.

This bill seeks to expunge the January 13, 2021, impeachment of President Donald J. Trump, effectively removing it from the historical record. It argues the impeachment was conducted without proper due process, lacked critical context, and did not prove Trump committed impeachable offenses or engaged in insurrection. The bill asserts that the impeachment should be expunged to ensure Trump is not barred from holding future office.

The "Defund Planned Parenthood Act of 2025" places a one-year moratorium on federal funding to Planned Parenthood, with exceptions for abortions in cases of rape, incest, or to save the woman's life. It redirects $235 million to community health centers and ensures that overall federal funding for women's health initiatives is not reduced.

The "Equal Representation Act" mandates the inclusion of a citizenship status question on the 2030 census and all future censuses. It requires the Secretary to report the number of citizens and non-citizens in each state. It also changes the way congressional districts are calculated by excluding non-citizens from the population count used for apportionment.

The FIND Act prohibits federal agencies from contracting with entities that discriminate against the firearm and ammunition industry. It requires federal contractors to certify they do not discriminate against firearm entities and prohibits them from awarding subcontracts to entities that do not provide a similar certification. Violations of these clauses will result in contract termination. The act defines "discriminate" as making judgments or refusing/limiting services based on biased criteria, rather than case-by-case evaluations, empirical data, financial risk, or legal non-compliance.

The "Fentanyl is a WMD Act" mandates the Department of Homeland Security to classify illicit fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.
